Preaching to the Democratic Choir is American's Salvation

[wcepler]

Hey, who else are we going to preach to? Republican fascists
or Fundamentalist fanatics?

Yes, we're preaching to "ourselves", but that's OK,
since it keeps us on point and mega motivated. And most
critically of all, it keeps us in touch with each other.

I still vividly remember what it was like during those few
months after 9/11. There was preaching alright, but it was
from the scum bags who criminally allowed 9/11 to happen in
the first place! Remember, it took us awhile to discover
that Fox Snooze, "Clear" Channel, and the American
media in general were now more part of the problem than the
solution.

Then for the next two years (roughly) we were in a
journalistic vacuum. But gradually, gradually the internet
sites began to appear and we discovered we were not alone.
And we FINALLY had reliable sources of news and information.


The 2006 midterms would NEVER have happened without our
passionate interconnectedness.

We started off something like the French underground during
WW2, but look at us now. Burgeoning progressive/liberal
internet sites in which we have nonstop "Town Hall"
meetings.

Do we always agree? Of course not. But this several million
person mass of instant communication is something brand new on
America's political scene. In a sense, we have replaced the
traditional press (alias, the Judas press), and in that sense
we have become an ENORMOUS political presence in the political
dynamics of our country. We have become, as they say, a
"force to be reckoned with". The pugs didn't see
us coming, but they'll never NOT see us in the future. It's
called being in their face and they better get resigned to
it.

In a propaganda dominated country, elections are moot. What
counts is pseudo news dissemination. Everything else is
shooting fish in a barrel.

But America is NO LONGER a propaganda dominated country.
Sure, the Judas press keeps licking the boots of their
masters, but we now have alternative new sources and ways we
can interconnect about what's really going on. And FROM this
news/communication revolution came the 2006 midterms.

Information is POWER. Communication is POWER.

So our "preaching" to each other isn't just
ventilating frustrations and meaningless jabber. Rather,
it's a realistic and pragmatic way of playing the American
political game more successfully.

We are no longer on the outside looking in.
